I'm very new to using a home server, and am trying to learn. I have recently installed Ubunto server 20.04.6 LTS on a laptop to use as my server. After the installation, I am able to connect via SSH to the server from the command prompt in my Windows 11 desktop. My intention is to find and...

I'm adding a screenshot of disk management to show the current situation........I find it confusing.

I upgraded my system several months ago with some new hardware, and went from Windows 10 to Windows 11. I have 3 SSDs: a new clean 1 TB SSD in the primary M.2 slot on the mobo a 500 GB SSD in the secondary M.2 drive on the mobo (this was previously my c: drive) a 128 GB SATA drive (this had...

What I am concerned about is: I want to install a new PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD as the new boot drive in the primary M.2 slot which is PCIe Gen4. I want to install my older PCIe Gen3 NVMe SSD in the second M.2 slot which is PCIe Gen3. I'm concerned that the fresh Windows 10 install will get the 2...

that is what I'm concerned about, I want the new SSD to be C:

thinking about upgrading my old system to the following: CPU: Ryzen 5 5600 mobo: ASRock B550 Pro4 AMD AM4 ATX RAM: 32Gb DDR4-3200 SSD: Inland Performance Plus 1TB 3D TLC NAND PCIe Gen 4 x4 NVMe M.2 I want to use the new Inland Performance Plus SSD as my main drive. I have made a Windows 10...

I intend to install my current Windows 10 OS onto a new M.2 SSD. Not sure what sort of USB drive I need to create. Do I make a Windows Recovery drive using my current system, and then use that same Recovery drive to put Windows 10 onto the new SSD? Or, is there another way to make a USB drive...

Nope.........Microsoft Edge

My Logitech G502 HERO wired mouse often has a problem with the left click. I very often have to left click a second time to get a response, very often on a button on a web page. Is anyone else having this problem? It is very annoying.

Starting to consider an upgrade from my Intel Gen 6 system. I don't require much, mostly browse the net, some large spreadsheet work, play a few fps single-player games, nothing very demanding. The reasons for the possible upgrade are: purchase a new M.2 PCIe gen 4 1 TB SSD to improve startup...

Well, will the mobo be "aware" that the GPU has failed? Is GPU failure something that they check at start-up?

Thinking about saving a few dollars on an "F"- type Intel CPU. But........if my GPU stops working will I be able to see anything on the monitor as the system boots up with a non-functional GPU? How would I know the GPU is not working, or will the system boot and then display some basic text...

My current hardware will not support Windows 11, and that is one reason why I am considering a hardware upgrade. I think that Microsoft will no longer support Windows 10 in a few more years

interesting...........use an older generation chip?..........add RAM to bring it up to 32 GB?..........then overclock the "K"-type cpu?

Yep, I guess I did miss the point. I bought the Asus mobo as a separate entity when I last built this machine, so there is no OEM OS. Hopefully, Microsoft will attach my OS to the new board, should I decide to proceed with the new hardware. BTW, you could have corrected me with something like...
